7TBODK APT BY BRUCt CATTON

Ernest Hemingway has written "Death in the Afternoon" to tell people who never have seen them just what bull fights are like. He has seen some 300 of them himself and he has found in them a strange sort of art—an art which is impermanent, misunderstood and bloody, but which, he insists, nevertheless, Is significant. To begin, he explains, the bull fight is not simply a contest between man and bull, in the sense that a prize fight is a contest between two boxers. It is a carefully staged, elaborately formalized tragedy in w-hich the inevitable death of the bull Is the high moment—the “moment of truth,” as the Spanish call it. The bull fight Ihas three parts. First, the bull faces the picadors who are on horseback. He drives them from the ring and has his moment of triumph. Then come the banderilleros, who fix barbed sticks in his shoulders, tire him and leave him for the matador.' The third act brings the matador alone into the ring with him; the matador must master him with his bit of colored cloth and must finally, at the risk of hiS own life, bring him into the position where he can be killed with a sword thrust. Mr. Hemingway’s book mav not persuade you that bull fighting is a great thing. But I am sure you will find the book uncommonly interesting all the way; one of the most interesting, and surely one of the most excellently written, books of the whole year. Published by Scribners, the book sells for $3.50. SCIENCE PROGRAMIs PRESENTED BY PUPILS Work Is Shown to Junior High in Auditorium Meeting.

Million-Year-Old Germs Found in Oil Deposits

Queer Microscope Organisms Have Power of Changing Petroleum. By United Press BERKLEY, Cal., Oct s.—Germs millions of years old have been found by Dean C. B; Lipman of the University of California. Dean Lipman announced the discovery of bacteria in deep oil deposits formed millions of years ago. The strange microscopic “germs" have the power of decomposing petroleum into other substances, such as organic acids, he said. The baceria was described by Dean Lipman as living chemical laboratories, which not only have the power of decomposing oil, but also are capable of turning inorganic salts containing certain substances directly into the nitrogen which is essential to all forms of life. Play Part in Change “It has been known for some time," Lipman pointed out, “that soil bacteria play an important part in the chemical transformation of ammonia to nitrogen in the form of nitrates. “In this activity the bacteria serve as adjuncts of plant life and are extremely necessary allies of the farmer.” * “But none of these bacteria has been definitely shown to carry through the entire operation alone. The usual process is for one type of bacteria to turn ammonia into nitrates, and for another to carry the process from nitrites to nitrates. Discovery by Accident This new bacterium, however, has the ability to complete the process alone and to do it much more quickly than the commonly known soil bacteria.'’ Dean Lipman said he and Louis Greenberg, graduate student with whom he worked on oil bacteria, made their -discovery more or less by accident. In the course of attempts to culture organisms from petroleum on cellulose in order to determine whether they might have the faculty of .destroying cellulose, thin other characteristic was discovered unexpectedly. Joseph Wilson Swan, an Englishman. took out the first patent for m&king artificial silk, in 1883. by squirting a pulp of wood and cotton through small holes.

Library Survey Reveals Lindy as Children’s Hero

“We" Most Often in Demand From Children's Shelves; Many Lincoln Demands.
